Do you mean access to ctx->skb->data + X?  If so, yes, that won't work.

Otherwise, then no, it just means that programs might have to be recompiled
if they lack needed relocation information, but only if bpf_nf_ctx structure is
changed.

Initial version used "__sk_buff *skb", like e.g. clsact.  I was told
to not do that and expose the real kernel-side structure instead and to
not bother with direct packet access (skb->data access) support.

ctx->skb is dereferenced...

... dynptr is created ...

ip header access.
